Hero Skin Content Drop - The Essentials

With hero development hopefully slowing down post Anakin, I think it's time for Guillariammeo (the hero designer) to focus his attention on skins. Lots of us are hoping for a significant customization drop for all of the neglected infantry factions, which is well overdue, but along with that it's time for the base heroes to get some alternate appearances. Mind you, not ALL of them need skins, but I would say the majority have at least 1 - 3 solid options. The following are what I personally think are both necessary and realistic when it comes to DICE releasing some hero skin content drops.
Darth Maul: Crimson Dawn (Legendary)
Yoda: Force Ghost (Legendary)
Chewbacca: Bespin (Legendary)
Obi Wan Kenobi: The Hermit (Legendary)
Luke Skywalker: Ahch-To (Legendary)
Luke Skywalker: Farm Boy (Epic)
Princess Leia: Cinnamon Buns (Epic)
Kylo Ren: Master of The Knights of Ren (Epic)
Boba Fett: Holiday Special (Epic)
Rey: Scavenger (Epic)
Finn: Topless (Epic)
There countless other skins that I haven't included, some of the main ones being ANH Han, Luke (Pilot, Bespin, Dagobah), Iden Versio Stormtrooper (helmeless), Maul w/ hood, Boushh Leia (no mask), Palpatine w/ red robes, Vader (ANH & RO) etcetera. But I think you guys get the point. Lots of options.
Now, I can say for certain that if you added any number of these I would immediately be out of credits. That means the wallet is coming out. DICE, please consider adding some of these.

Great list, only needs one more thing ENDOR LUKE
Seriously you have the other 2 Endor outfits for Han and Leia. You're ruining my Endor immersion DICE
Forgot about Endor Luke!
Surprised there isn't more for unknown Iden 🤔
Weak chirp.
Weak thread.
Iden is boring and doesn't need any more ANYTHING but this thread is truly what the devs must listen to.
Give me some advice! I see your threads are just booming with responses
There is plenty they could do, but taking current skins, and rearranging assets, slapping an antenna on a helmet, making one new helmet, then making a twitter post patting themselves on the back is much more worth the weapons designer's time.
also changing the helmet on the white power ranger and removing the Heavy's skirt which no one asked for
As opposed to the black power ranger
Oh no, you got me
But seriously, farmboy luke... wtf are you people on?
Just reminding you that your threads are trash. Move along cuckers.
But I really would love to see ANH Han, Leia, and Luke as well as Bespin Luke. I don't understand why they are so scared of adding skins to Luke, Maul, Sidious, Vader, and Boba.
Um, The Force Awakens? It’s him with mask no hood.
Is that before he smashes it in the Incel tantrum?
If you can count 1 through 8 then you’ll be able to find that answer all on your own!
I apologise, have I upset you?
I haven't seen the ST movies is why I asked.
Consider yourself lucky! I flipped over 3 strollers leaving episode 8
Obi-Wan - Master
Obi-Wan - General
Anakin - Padawan

Do we really need Dooku in his PJ’s? Chewbacca with an ouchie?
No. I didn't the purchase the bandage chewie and not getting dooku's sleepwear neither.

I didn’t ask if you purchased them. Cartoon Obi is a skin we “don’t need” in my opinion. Yet here we are.
Don't forget hooded and TCWs Maul, Caped Grievous, Episode III and CWs skin for palpatine, Battle Damaged Vader, ect.
The next big update needs to release like 15 or so of these skins at once, or else everyone will have the credits every time to buy them without crystals.
All are great choices, but I have one proposal: replace Boba's skin with Jango Fett.
Yea, one has a pistol and another a blaster, but still, nothing is canon in this game, so it will still be plausible.
Pretty please?
OK. I’ll talk to the team and see what I can do

If they can port Luke's face then surely they can port Scariff.. but hey.. EA and all.
-Shaved Wookie Chewie
-Old zombie force ghost Vader (before the remastered changed it to Anakin at the end of ROTJ)
-Obiwan's undercover bounty hunter face
-Luke after he lost his hand but before he gets a robot hand
-"censored" Slave Leia (protect the kids)
-Episode 1 Anakin
-Episode 3 Luke and Leia
-Episode 8 Han Solo
-and several other Han Solo skins where the thickness of his beard is slightly longer
This shouldn't detract from Jango being his own character at one point either.
With duel wield and unique abilities tied to the skin? That would be pretty dope
And this skin... ...would be amazing. This is what I had hoped the current General Kenobi skin would be. The one we've got is okay, but this one would be so much better...
lmao, backpack yoda. Not before Chewbacca gets his C3PO harness. How are the devs not on top of no brainers like these? We give them ideas for legendary skins for months on end and the best they come up with is Dooku in sleepwear?

I almost tend to agree, but having not one but two airborne heroes might not be a good idea, and probably EA thinks the same. It might work if Jango is mainly a terrestrial hero, with his jetpack being just a glorified longer dodge and small leaps with cooldowns attached, so he won't fly Palpatine like, excluding longer flights, while also having the excuse of giving him better firepower.
I concede your point, though. Good observation.
@BucksawBoushh Correction: Please inform your team to hold everything! They can restart only when Jango Fett is no longer an option. Thank you.
Agree with you on Jango working if he were a ground based blaster hero with his JP being used for an ability or two and maybe for dodge. That would be perfect.
I’ll talk to the team. I value your guys’ input. I think our main focus right now is to bring both new and ported maps to all modes as well as start putting development time to blasters. We’re looking into 1 new modifiable blaster per class to start as well as 3 new mods for each default blaster.
Also, we’ve been gathering info on both the infantry and hero skins you guys have been requesting... Guillariame has some work to do
What team are you in anyway? 😏
